Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

v15 - I realized that I wanted to know the OPR of "on2" and it wouldn't let me, so v15 disables the "correct regional code" checker, so it'll work on any regional code imaginable. Also updates the regional code list so that you see the 2011 set of regionals.

Sorry to fans of the "all" option. I don't have enough time to recover that feature, and I can't guarantee it'd get updated in future years (or that I'd get every regional). However, I keep posting the source in the hopes someone else can pick up the torch and add cool features.

It works if you use opr and other stuff but not predict.

Fixed! See my previous post. The problem was pretty lame (related to the new competition year), I'm going to put in something so that next year I won't forget to update things.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Thanks your awesome. Also can you copy the values put of the program anyway?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

If you want to copy to a text file, run it from a command line (start->run->cmd) and type "oprnet nh 2012 opr r q > output.txt" without the quotes. That will run it for the Granite State Regional and spit the result into output.txt in the same directory. You can then copy/paste that into excel or print it off.

If you run it normally, you can right-click on the program window, choose mark, then drag-select what you want to copy and press enter. Then paste it into notepad.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Another thing I noticed is the predict doesnt work by ranking. It just still prints out the teams in their numerical order even when I type in that I want ranking.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Did you grab data from all of the events at once?
How?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I used the OPRNet Tool v16 (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...&postcount=208) to create the table, it downloads the data as it needs it so I do not have that data on hand.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I think if you do R instead of T for your sort order, it should work by W-L-T record. Though the predicted seed won't be accurate because teams will have coopertition points.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

My output is:
Its not working right....

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

@Bongle: Is there a way to run your OPRNet Tool to output a file with the raw data in it?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

You can get it to output the OPRs from the command-line, but the parsed FRC match data is just thrown away once I download it. You can grab the v15 source code in one of my old posts and adapt it to your own needs though.

You're right the predicted standings don't seem to work - it might be ranking using 2010's strange method rather than a normal W-L-T. Due to coopertition bridges though, I wouldn't worry about the predicted standings - they'll be completely wrong anyway since the bridge points aren't taken into account.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Actually, I wasn't looking for the OPR, or the parsed match data. I was looking for the raw match data. Could you post a link to where you're getting that raw data from?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I just use the official FIRST match results.

frclinks.com gives you links to most of them.

Example: The Alamo results are here: http://www2.usfirst.org/2012comp/Events/stx/matchresults.html (stx is the short code for the regional). You can get different results by substituting different regional codes and years.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Is there a way to grab the data from all of the events?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

It strikes me that OPR might undervalue teams who exclusively pursue the Coopertition Bridge in qualification rounds, since that doesn't add to their score. Have you considered accounting for that, perhaps by adding twenty points to the score of any alliance that receives full coopertition points?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

It would undervalue them for sure. Unfortunately, I don't actually have a way to determine which alliance earned coopertition points, since it's not in the full results and I don't have the time to implement a twitter parser.

Another thing it is semi-missing is foul points - in previous years, a team that tended to take penalties would end up with a negative OPR. But this year, since those penalties actually add points to your opponents, a penalty-heavy team might still have an apparently-high OPR. Or, if you are a team that tends to get fouled, you might have an elevated OPR despite never scoring a basket.

Here's all the OPRs for this week. The number on the left is that robot's rank at its regional.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

We went for the coopertition bridge every match, usually with at least 45 seconds left in the match. I'm sure that hurts our OPR, but anyway...

You also don't have a way to determine which robots scored the points in each match, which is why we use OPR. You can use the OPR algorithm on coopertition points to get a "coopertition OPR" that should in theory determine which robots are doing the coopertition bridge balancing.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

The problem is that for every match, I at least get a (foul + baskets + bridge) score for each alliance, which is then used to determine OPR. I don't, however, get a coopertition score for each alliance every match, so you can't apply the same regression math to try and tease out which teams actually earned the coopertition bridge points. With the data actually available in the FRC results, the best you can do is divide each team's CP total by their # of matches played, and hope that correlates with the teams that are actually cooperteting.

If I could parse the twitter feed or if it was available at a more convenient place than twitter (anyone know a link?), then I'd be able to break out fun things like Bridge Power Ratings, Hybrid Ratings, Basket Power Ratings, Foul Ratings, and Coopertition ratings, which would probably help a prospective picking team pick out complementary teams. Come to think of it, that would be useful enough to be worth trying to do.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Ahhh, for some reason I thought they were giving the coopertition bonus in the results. I was competing this week so I haven't seen what the web results look like this year.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

If you're using an n x n+1 matrix where the n+1 column is the sum of points, can you not use the sum on the standings page under the CP column?

For example

http://www2.usfirst.org/2012comp/Eve.../rankings.html

By this theory, you could also do separate "OPR's" for Hybrid Points, Bridge Points, Teleop Points, and Coop Points. That would be interesting to see.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

If you really want to, you can pull the standings, and take the CP points/possible CPs * Bridge Points. I think one could make a reasonable argument that each teams contribution towards teh Co-Op bridge should be worth 10 points if successful. Thus for Kettering, looking at the top 2 rankings, you could argue that 2337 deserves a 14CP/(2CP*12matches)*10 points or... 5.8 point bonus. 51 would get 10CP/(2CP*12matches)*10 or 4.17 bonus. You would need to do that in relation to all teams to get a full understanding, and even then it only tells a partial story.

OPR will be an interesting metric this year. While not as low a value as it was in 2009, I expect it will not be as strong a predictor as it was in 2008 or 2010. Smart teams will be looking at what is seeding high, and what is winning, and thus what are good predictors.
Further discussion should probably be in an outside thread so as not to thread-jack Bongle any further than I have.

Thank you Bongle for posting the OPRs.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Yeah, I thought of that after I posted :). In fact, I was completely wrong in my previous post - all you need to do an OPR-style calc is the sum of the points scored and what alliance partners that team throughout the regional, so the standings page will in fact be able to give us all the things we want wrt bridge/basket/foul/coopertition points. The individual match scores are actually not necessary (except in past years, FIRST didn't break out the sum of a team's scoring types, which is why I thought the lack of CP/HP/BP/FP in the match scores was a deal-killer).

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Alright, starting work on the bridge/basket/foul/coopertition analysis component now. I'm pretty excited. Hopefully done in a few hours (8pm EST).

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Ok, here's v19. This includes, for 2012, the ability to rank teams on hybrid/bridge/teleop categories. I assumed that 2 coopertition points = 10 points of bridge scoring.

I may have skipped a version number.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

OK, I'm running Win 7 x64. When I run OPRNet from a command line, I get an error saying MSVCP100.dll is missing.
I re-installed it, but the error keeps popping up every time I try to run OPRNet.
Any clue what's happening and how to cure this?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Try installing the Visual C++ 2008 runtimes: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=29

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Nope, same error after install.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I'm having the same issue as Mr. Bill, but on XP x32 (I know, antiquated, right?).

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I just tried installing the MS Visual C++ 2010 as well, and that didn't fix it either.
Now this is getting odd!

OK, it's a few minutes later now.
I just copied the MSVCP100.dll file from system32 into the folder with OPRNet.
I now get a different error. See the attached image.

I read a few message on the net saying something about linking the dll's statically. Does that make sense to you? This is way out of my league.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Ah, I must have messed up my project settings. I changed its directory on my computer so I could get it in source control, and I must have forgotten to move something else or change a setting.

Edit: Whoops, I'm so used to developing on VS2008 I forgot I've moved to 2010 at home. Ok, so you need these runtimes: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en...s.aspx?id=5555

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Here's v20. I made it so the overall OPR is also given the coopertition adjustment (coopertition points * 5, assuming that CPs are points you could have gotten if your alliance assigned you to a different bridge), and did a clean-and-build to attempt to fix the 0xc000007b errors people are getting.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Yep, working like a champ now!

Bongle,
Can I ask you a favor? Can you please make a single post describing all the command line options? I've been using this awesome little tool for a few seasons now and really love it. The problem is, my PC took a dive last fall and I lost all my batch files I used as templates. So, I need to start from scratch and I am, well, a bit lazy and don't want to read through 16+ pages of posts to find all the tricks I used to generate the data I used to use. :(

Thanks!

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

It says i cant run because im missing the MSVCP100.dll and I cant find that .dll

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Here's the bat file I used for the week 1 regionals:
Let's take one line:
"oprnet nh 2012 hybrid r q >> allopr-hybrid.txt"

Broken down:
oprnet - you need this part to start the program :)
nh - indicates you care about the new hampshire regional
2012 - indicates you want results for 2012
hybrid - indicates the statistic you want to print (other options for 2012: opr, teleop, hybrid, bridge)
r - sort teams by ranking (as opposed to 't', which sorts them by team number)
q - quiet mode: makes it not print out status data. Also changes the output format so it's easier to copy/paste into excel. If you want loud mode from the command line for whatever reason, just omit the q.
>> - tells DOS to append all output from oprnet to a text file. The single greater-than ('>') tells it to clear out the file and start over.
allopr-hybrid.txt - which file you want to output to.

The q is optional, and the ">> blah.txt", being a DOS command, is also optional. If you don't have the ">> blah.txt", it'll just spit to your command-line window.

Note that because I'm lazy and because I doubt there's that much use nowadays of the more esoteric parameters like SAA, PM, or DPR, I don't really support them and if the app crashes when you try to use one, I am not that bothered. In 2013, I'm likely to not care very much if the bridge/teleop/hybrid feature gets broken as well.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Dodar,
First, follow the link in Bongle's message above and add the Visual 2010 runtimes. Then download and run his v.20 and you should find it works again.

Great work as always.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

USFirst, with TheBlueAlliance as a backup*. The bridge/hybrid/teleop stuff requires the USFirst team rankings page to be up.

*I haven't actually tested the TBA backup code in a while, I'm not sure it still works since it is at least 2 years old.

I've been fairly googlish with my posting of source code, but here's v20's. It's fairly hackish code because I keep patching it with new features each year that I didn't originally envision, so please don't judge me on the quality.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Just curious: what are you using LU decomposition for ?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Bongle,

I might be doing this wrong, but I seem to be having a problem; whenever I submit a response to the final query (i.e. 'r' for sort teams by rank), it creates two temporary files, then shuts down. A couple years ago, when I fooled around with one of your earlier versions, it worked fine. Now however, apparently I'm doing something wrong. Any idea what I've done?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

If you rename the temporary files to .html and try to view them in a browser, they should just be the FIRST results pages. If they aren't, or they look stylistically different than this one, then the parser that extracts the scores might be having trouble.

I believe that's the technique the matrix solving library I use (JAMA) uses. I don't know too many details about it.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Sorry, should have specified.

It doesn't ever return any results. After a second of thinking, it just shuts down, though I did notice it creating those two temp files.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Here's v21: The only new feature is that it won't instantly shut down when it has an error. This should help debug your problem. If you run the current one from a command line that'd help too.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

What does this mean? I keep getting:

Thanks! :D

Edit: Is this because I'm using v21 and I'm checking years prior to 2012?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

For coefficient matrices associated with processing data from single events one at a time (even large events), LU is probably fine. But if you ever want to do computations for, say, an entire year's worth of data in one matrix (simultaneous solution using data from all events in the year), you might want to consider using Cholesky instead. It's twice as fast. The JAMA library you are using supports Cholesky.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

v22 - should fix the problems with downloading past-years results.

Ether, thanks for the tip.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Bongle, in the post-season I may assist you with some refactoring if you'd like. Extension of legacy code well after its expected end of life cycle is what I do best at work. Do you have the code up on a repository?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Why wouldn't we want to have the Coopertition Points to time 10 instead of 5?

The Coop Bridge is the same maneuver as a 2-bot balance which is equal to 20 points. Also for bridge OPR I would use the BP + (CP*10) = Total Bridge Points.

This will assist team that are looking for good Bridge balancers.

-Clinton-

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

But CPs are handed out to both alliances and require both alliances to participate.

2-bot balance = 20 points granted to the 3-robot alliance that scored it = 60 robot-points.

co-op balance = 2 CPs granted to all 6 robots on the field = 12 robot-CPs. If we want it to be equivalent, then I think we should say it was 5 fake points per CP.

I could take the adjustment out entirely and make a 4th stat that just shows how many CPs a team is expected to achieve, then teams could apply their own adjustment if they felt like it.

I've got it on a local perforce server in my house, but nowhere else other than my intermittent source posts on CD. Since I'm unlikely to touch the code at all post-CMP, you could take the last source post I make, make the changes, then post it back on CD (or set up an actual repository).

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I actually had a similar problem earlier today - are you trying to run it from inside the zip file? I found that windows wouldn't permit the temporary file to be created if you ran it inside the zip file. Try copying OPRNet.exe to your desktop or something, then running it.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Works perfectly now, thank you!

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Excellent, I confirmed it as well. Here's v23, which downloads to your windows temp folder (as reported by GetTempPath()) rather than the local folder. It also cleans up after itself when it is done, which the old version did not.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Its saying that the file is invalid or corrupted.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Unfortunately, I can't because I don't have a readily-accessible data source (aka not the FMS twitter feed) to get the foul points from.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

HP and BP appear to be a straight sum. I wonder if it would be possible to calculate FP from the QS, HP, BP, TP (actually TP+FP), and CP that are in the data sets you are using ?

Or you could get the same data as the Twitter feed from CD's frcspy XML feed, no?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

v24: New feature - The 'sched' statistic prints out the average OPR of your allies and opponents so you can kvetch about how you had to play 1114, 2056, 67, 341 and so on every single match and that's why you ranked so low :-)

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I seem to be doing something very wrong. Every time I enter anything in the OPRnet (v24) window, it goes into what appears to be an infinite loop of location codes (I think; it's going really fast). Text saying "Please e... >>>" [enter?] zips by every loop as well.

Anyone feel like helping a clueless gearhead?

EDIT: I've tried using the sample offered in the opening lines of the OPRnet window, as well as various codes from threads like these.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I did the same thing. Instead of entering the whole string, just enter the year, hit enter, then the regional code, hit enter, etc.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I should probably fix that bug... When it asks for year, just enter the year ('2012' without quotes) and nothing else. Then when asks for regional, enter just the regional code.

The little scripts you see posted around (like "oprnet il 2009 opr r q > output.txt") are for if you want to automatically run oprnet from a batch file without having to actually interact with it. It's useful for spitting out results for a ton of regionals at once.

v25 - fixes that bug, and no longer requires the visual c++ 2010 runtimes to run! Hooray for changing a small configuration option!

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Do'h! Awesome, thank you. I guess to run a batch file you have to like, use a batch file, huh? Whoops. :o

EDIT: Oh, thank you again :) [for v25]

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

v25 works great. Thank you!!

Will you be posting the v25 sources at some point?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

v25 source.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Thanks for sharing the sources Bongle!

I'm a new mentor this year. Being a programmer I want to get my head into the actual algorithm used to calculate the OPR and DPR values to understand it for myself. A quick scan of the sources shows its playing with matrices so I am guessing its time to refresh myself on Linear Algebra.

I skimmed around the CD forums but I see mostly talk of using the values but nothing on any actual algorithm (or a description of the algorithm). I am sure there has to be some place it is described but I am just not finding it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I had that issue. Just use the full division name (e.g. newton). OPRnet just uses whatever string you type into that parameter as part of the URL. The New FIRST website no longer redirect the division abrieviations (e.g. new) to the correct URL.

On a side note, the OPRs of the Divisions Thursday night are pretty much worthless. With only 3-4 matches completed for 100 teams, the matrix is barely solveable. Expect lots of redculously high and low numbers :rolleyes:

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

lol, I ran the numbers earlier just to see how they were looking for Archimedes, and yeah... they seem, how should we say... less than accurate. :P

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

Yeah, the numbers probably won't be usable until teams' 6-7th matches. I wish I knew more stats and could give error bars on team's OPRs, that'd be handy. It's just a simple linear regression, I'd think the math on how to get confidence intervals would be straightforward, but I haven't found it.

Re: Easy to use Offensive Power Rankings (OPR) program for mid-regional scouting
 

I found it took until the 7-8th matches to settle down enough to be usable.

For fun I also had it predict the Saturday AM matches for all 4 divisions. It correctly predicted 72.72% of the Archimedes matches and a few were pretty dang close to the predicted score. I will check how well it did on the other 3 divisions if anyone is interested.

It might be more complicated than you think. Consider the following problem:

Sorry for thread bumping if this is a dead channel, but I'm curious as to where I could find the OPRNet.exe for this season.

the previous version still works, as long as you apply the new event codes.

Where can I find the new event codes?

Sweet!

Because I don't have the time anymore to update it :(

Couldn't even make it to montreal with 2702 :( :(

Thank you, I'll give it a shot!

Doesn't work for me... It doesn't allow me to use the new codes. For example, whenever I type "ista" it reprints the list of old codes.

I got it to output the raw OPR for Oregon correctly. It's just weird that it has an option to select bridge points :S

I would love to be able to sort by hybrid, climb and do everything from last year. Maybe I'll need to take a look at the source code and see how hard it would be to bring it up to speed with 2013.

I don't know if I'm up to the task, but I'd certainly like the data :)

Does it allow for week 2 events? I tried everything for Orlando and then tried San Diego to just make sure I wasn't doing anything wrong and it failed every time.
